Nugget, you may not want to hear this..... but what is "romance"? I don't know what that is anymore.
Don and I have been married for 37 years. Romance disappeared a hundred years ago, if it ever existed at all.
Okay, so I don't remember romance. The last romance I had was with my first fiance, who was killed in 1963. I don't believe in it anymore.
Don and I are the best of friends. We always have been and always will be. We spend all our time together and talk about everything together. There's nothing that we can't and don't talk to each other about. To me, that's enough. To me, that's everything. It's a comfortable feeling that we have being together. That's romantic enough for me. Frankly, I think that's what it's all about. You either grow together or grow apart, and we've grown together. I love him more now than I ever did. I know he feels the same.
I just don't do "romance" anymore. I don't want it, I don't miss it, I don't think about it.
What you have described between you and your husband sounds good to me. Keep it up, and you'll both grow together. And then, after 37 years, you'll look back and realize how happy you were after all. Enjoy it now, because those 37 years will fly by. Trust me.
